The winners were announced in 26 categories when the Australian Shop and Office Fitting Industry Association (ASOFIA) held their awards on 27 April.
The awards received the highest amount of entries to date, and featured a range of different business fit-outs, all of which had to have been completed in the past 18 months.
The winners were announced at the ASOFIA 17th National Conference Gala Dinner, this year held in Fiji.

Gerard Ryan, CEO of ASOFIA, says it has come as a pleasant surprise to see the association’s program attract a record number of submissions of such quality.
“The significant increase in entries is reflective of a shift in the type of fit-out work that members have completed over the past year. This shift includes an increase in restaurant and leisure related facilities, and a substantial increase in the ‘high-end’ retail sector,” Ryan said.

“The breadth of this year’s entries was astounding and very different from what we’ve seen over the past few years. The quality and quantity was phenomenal. We found it extremely difficult to pick one winner for each category.”
